A beautiful waterfall where you can pass under without getting (very) wet. The four star terrain difficulty are only for keeping childrens away, the trail is very short (100mts from the car park) but very slippery.
The Lamoso creek (Ribeira de Lamoso) mostly after rainy seasons provides us a beautiful waterfall (Faia da Água Alta) when it falls from 35 meters to the Bemposta creek (Ribeira da Bemposta).
Half the height it allows (when the water flow is enough), to pass behind it without getting wet, that’s why the name of this cache is “under fall”
To reach this spot you must head to a litlle village called Lamoso,
Then at the point: N 41º 18.999 W 006º 31.760
enter carefully in the dirt trail (hardly suitable to any 2x4 and only in dry weather) then follow the trail until you reach the
parking spot: N 41º 18.323 W 006º 31.384
here you will find a short track that leads you to the cache.
To find the cache you don’t need to pass under the water, but to get very close of it, note that to get there you need to pass a tricky and slippery rock (at the corner), get special care mostly at rainy days, not suitable to small children.
Don't forget: Cache In Trash Out...
